Hey all, I recently entered my '96 Suburban in a truck pull. I placed 3rd out of 11 trucks in the 1/2 ton gas class even though I broke. There were 3 trucks that had a pull off, 2 other IFS Chevys and myself. The sled was set for the 3/4 and 1 ton gas class for the pull off when I broke. There were 4 Chevy trucks, 1 Dodge, and 6 Ford's. The Dodge broke his rear u-joint before the sled even moved, lol.
I wish GM would have put a stronger axle in a 6,300 pound vehicle... but oh well, upgrading to a 14 bolt is real easy.
Here are some videos of a few of the 1/2 ton gas class and the unlimited deisel class. (Nevermind the Dodge idleing at the beginning... we messed up when filming). Only a few of the pullers are shown. And then some pics of my busted rear.
